Mitsubishi HS-U445 I have a Mitsubishi VCR and my son was pushing buttons on the remote and now the VCR is not responding to the remote nor the button on the VCR. The VRC is still showing the time and it has the word "LOCK" above the time. Can you help me with this problem?? I tried looking online for a Mit manuel, but could not find any. Can you help?? Thanks for your time.

Vintage VHS recorders can get quite messy. Probaly you need to take it to service. Presume it's time to convert your family tapes to DVD.

take the top off the VCR, you will see where the tape is hung up. Reach down and release the tape and pick it up, now close the top.

your VCR has a problem with the drive belt CAPSTAN, maybe is broken or fallen, you have to take it apart and check that the band is in order

E2 means: Loading motor locked in the unload direction. Usually(not always) happens with a going bad VCR tape on the rewind. Tape is becoming too difficult to rewind and/or VCR is getting tired. Eject tape. Discard tape as soon as practical, new tapes are cheap. To clear: Hold power on/off button for 8 seconds.

Following the instructions I have been able to program a Philips SRU4105WM/17 universal remote using the first Mitsubishi code from the code list. However, I had to have the universal remote "learn" the vcr/tv button function (I assigned it to the Exit button). Good thing I still have the original Mitsubishi remote:-) I haven't tried having the universal remote learn all the functions, such as Cancel, Counter Reset, Audio Function, Video Function etc. I could see if I'm able to program those, if you'd like. LMK if you have any other questions.

I cannot eject the tape from the LOC position of the VCR. How do we unlock it?

Just had the same E2 come up on my HSU-445. The only thing we could figure out was to try a different tape than the one that was in there when the error came up. That seemed to do the trick. Not sure how long that will work. Good luck.

try holding down the power button for 8 + seconds upon first starting the vcr. the language option will again be afforded you. see the manual.

The VCR has to be off for the timed record to work.

unplug it for 30 minutes and retry...any luck?
